Vesevo is situated in the Irpinian hills of Campania. Known as the Switzerland of the South, this is now one of Italys most exciting wine producing areas. The vineyards are situated from 450 to 700 metres above sea level and are subject to a constant cool breeze that blows off the Bay of Naples. Over the centuries, this same breeze has blown volcanic ash from Mount Vesuvius inland, to give the soil here a poor, volcanic character.The Taurasi Ensis is made from the higher plots and selected fruit that bring more concentration and complexity to this wine. On the nose, intense, complex aromas redolent of red berry fruits and hints of vanilla which follow onto the structured palate which has firm but smooth tannins and a clean, dry finish.
